Chapter 317: Duel! Baker Street! (22) Deterrence
"Don't move, everyone, wait until Conan and I go in through the back door to see what's going on." Standing at the door of the bridge club, Asa Yu let go of Gray Yuan's hand, turned his head, and looked at everyone seriously.
"It's okay, don't come in casually!" Conan also said seriously.
"Well, you two have to be careful!" Xiaolan looked at the two of them with a little worry and said softly.
"We're not coming!" Yuan Tai Ayumi and others said together.
Having said that, Asa Yu didn't have much confidence in the promise of these children, and everyone knew that what these children were best at was not listening to others. Although there is no danger every time, it also makes people's hearts beat wildly.
Asa Yu and Conan glanced at each other, each nodded slightly, slowly pushed open the back door, and quietly slipped in.
Bypassing a few corridors, Asa and Conan came to a place where there was light, and the two looked at each other and held their breath.
Leaning against the wall, Light Feather poked her head out slightly, glancing inside.
In this bridge club, there is not as smoky miasma as the two imagined before, there is a feeling of all kinds of villains in it, but there is a sense of elegance, the people in it are in groups of three or five, each sitting in their own seats talking and laughing, but the voice is not noisy, and the people are all dressed elegantly, one by one like a cultivated gentleman.
"It looks so elegant." A sneer appeared at the corner of Conan's mouth, "I really didn't expect that these guys are really pretending to be gentlemen." ”
"Have you ever heard of the underworld theory?" Qian Yu raised his eyebrows, and there was a hint of a smile in his eyes, "The people who are fierce on the street, with tattoos on their bodies and cigarette butts in their mouths, bullying men and women, are third-rate underworlds, with scars on their faces, strong figures, and coldness in their eyes, and those who don't do it casually are second-rate underworlds, those who are gorgeously dressed, elegantly behaved, and polite to everyone, but with majesty on their bodies, are first-class underworld bosses." This principle applies everywhere, the darker the thing, the more beautiful it looks. ”
"You said that." Conan nodded and whispered, and then his face turned strange.
Gorgeously dressed, elegantly behaved, polite to everyone and with a dignified ...... Isn't that you? Conan complained silently in his heart.
"Look at that." Asa Feather tilted his head slightly, pointing lightly in the direction of the end of the club, Conan understood, quietly raised his head, and looked down the gap in the low wall.
In that direction, there was a table of people.
There were four people sitting at the table of six, and the seats on either side were empty, and on one side was a bottle of wine, and an empty wine glass was upside down. On either side of the table, four people were sitting playing cards, and there were some playing cards and four shiny piles of gold pounds scattered on the table, and closer to Conan and Asakaha, was a middle-aged man in a rich gray suit, gray hair, and a majestic face. On the opposite side of the middle-aged man, sitting on his opponent was a man with a hooked nose, and on the back of the hooked nose man, there was actually a gray pet monkey, hairy and hairy, looking very funny, at this time he lowered his head from time to time to grab the dried fruit in his hand and eat. When Asa Yu saw this monkey, he couldn't help but sneer.
"What's wrong?" Conan's eyes moved, revealing a hint of doubt.
"That guy in a gray suit should be Moran, right?" Asa Yu sneered and said softly, "He's cheating with that monkey." ”
"Cheating?" Conan was slightly stunned, "You can see it at a glance?" ”
"I got tired of this tactic when I was ten years old." Light Yu sneered, "That monkey should have been trained, there are four patterns of playing cards, each two corresponds to a monkey's hand, as for the color, have you noticed the dried fruit that the monkey eats?" The dried fruit has two colors, black for the blueberry and red for the cranberry, and the point is the number of dried fruit it eats, which is how it tells Moran the opposite card. At the beginning, my brother and I also tried to keep an eye on Master to check his homework, but we used a parrot. Asa Yu shrugged, "Later, the master found out and punished the two of us to train the parrot to be able to recognize twenty-six English letters." ”
“....... Your life is really colorful. Conan couldn't help but be slightly speechless, "So......" At this moment, the door behind the two of them suddenly creaked and slowly opened, and then Zhuxing and Takisawa slipped in.
"How did you get in?" Conan was taken aback when he saw this.
"I don't want to think about how long you've been in there?" Zhuxing rolled his eyes, "Who knows if you two are dead or alive?" ”
"So now?" Takizawa also asked, "What should I do?" ”
"In that case, there is no way to meet Professor Moriarty." Conan pondered for a moment, and by the way, he told the two stars about Moran's previous tricks, "Wait...... What's up with that bottle? He noticed that the wine placed in that position couldn't help but be slightly stunned, but before he could react, a voice suddenly sounded on the side, which surprised him.
"He's out of the old man!" The stars on the side shouted violently, and walked out of the shadows directly, pointing their fingers directly at Colonel Moran, "Moran, this guy is out of a thousand!" ”
"This guy ......" Conan's eyes widened at the time, and he couldn't get angry, "Bastard! ”
"It's not necessarily a bad thing." Unexpectedly, Qianyu's brows furrowed slightly, and then he relaxed, "If you stay like this, I'm afraid there will be no way to see Professor Moriarty." It's better to make a fuss and lure the professor out by the way. If I'm not mistaken......" Asa Yu was slightly silent and looked at the place where the bottle was.
On the other side, Colonel Moran had already stood up angrily.
"Little ghost, you'd better pay attention to your tone when you speak." Mo Lan's face was gloomy, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes, "Say that I am a thousand, but you have to have proof!" ”
"Absolutely! That monkey is very good with you, isn't it? Zhuxing was not afraid at all, and sneered and told him everything about the method that Conan had told him before, which immediately aroused the anger of the person who played cards with him on the other side.
You know, in this kind of place, there are thousands, but it is the most hated.
"If you quarrel, let's quarrel later." Unexpectedly, a gun suddenly appeared in Zhuxing's hand, pointing straight at Colonel Moran with a mocking smile on his face, "Where is Professor Moriarty!" ”
"What!" When Moran heard this, he was immediately shocked, and his face suddenly became gloomy, "How did you know the name of the adult!" As he spoke, a fierce look appeared in his eyes, like a fierce tiger that chose people to devour, which made Zhu Xing suddenly feel timid, and couldn't help but take a step back.
"Bang!" Zhuxing, who couldn't withstand the psychological pressure, shot first, and the bullet cut through the clothes on Moran's shoulder, but Zhuxing and Takisawa stumbled a few steps because of the recoil of the pistol, and suddenly fell to the ground.
"Arrest them!" Moran was furious and immediately shouted at the people in the club, and suddenly, the entire bridge club moved, and everyone stood up. Towards a few people.
Slowly picking up the pistol at his feet, Moran couldn't help but tremble when he saw the words 'S.H' engraved on the bottom of the pistol.
"Sherlock Holmes!" Moran roared, a hint of madness in his eyes, "They're Sherlock Holmes!" Give it to me! Everybody's hands-on! ”
"Be quiet!" Suddenly, a cold drink suddenly sounded from the air, making Moran tremble.
"Moran?" The cold sound like a cold current condensed a layer of frost in the entire air, and with a cold and majestic voice, it echoed in the small club, and then, a small figure slowly walked out of the doorway.
The golden-eyed boy walked in slowly, with a cold glow in his golden-rimmed glasses, and a delicate little face full of indifference, standing quietly in front of Colonel Moran, but it brought tremendous pressure to this guy known as "London's second dangerous man", as if he was not a child in front of him, but a giant dragon.
"Who gave you the guts to make such a noise?" The boy looked at Moran coldly, his voice was cold, "The slave will do my duty as a slave, and the master didn't speak......"
"You old dog, what do you bark at?"
"......" Colonel Moran looked at the boy in front of him and trembled, but it was not because the boy's words annoyed him, on the contrary, he was like this because of fear!
Except for the voice of this boy, the other expressions, tones, and even the indifferent look when he spoke were exactly the same as that person! It feels like James to him. Professor Moriarty was standing in front of him alive!
This kid ....... That's impossible! Moran took a step back slightly, his face unbelievably ugly.
"This is the real ......" Conan stood at the back door, looking at the boy's figure, and couldn't help but sigh softly.
"'Silent Moriarty'!"
